CC list of the Best TV shows of ALL Time
« on: February 23, 2008, 05:03:25 PM »
I am inspired by the horrible list that Mensa put out and am thinking it would be fun to have a CC list of the best TV shows of all time. But I think we are a diverse enough group that probably there would be no consensus in our views so just list your five all time favorites.  I'll start:

Twin Peaks

The Prisoner

Nowhere Man

Babylon 5

Doctor Who

"The Ed Sullivan Show" is probably the most important entertainment program that's been on TV so far, and it's been gone 38 years.

That show made me fall asleep.  Besides, I became a Spike/Buffy fanatic, so good riddance to that other vampire.  :p

I wish the scene existed in it's entirety on YouTube.  The video I found cuts off just before the...uh...climax. 

I am making sexual puns now.   :o    People on the internet have been a bad influence on me!  :hammer:

Taking into consideration when and where some things were made, here's the first ten that come to my mind in no particular order:

Black Adder
Star Trek
Steve Canyon
Futurama
Red Dwarf
The Red Green Show
Monty Python
Absolutely Fabulous
The Twilight Zone
WKRP

Lancelot Link wasn't very smart but it was funny as Hell.  If we were going for 'Snappy repartee' like that one icky item on the Mensa list, MXC would've been on it.
